First off, please be aware that there is no guarantee this is going anywhere. For now, we're just seeing how many of you would be interested in this.

So, what is it?

Mercenaries last update was in February of 2016, over two years ago. Since that, the mod, while still going strong, has only seen very little attention from Homer, who, from what we now, doesn't have much time to spend on it due to personal reasons.

I believe it's about time that we get another patch and I'm willing to work on it. For that, we obviously need Homers support - I'd either need access to the Mercenaries source code from him or him to implement the changes I prepare and we would also need him to upload the changes made to the Mercenaries servers and to the mods download page.

If this poll gets enough support, we'll send it to Homer and hope that he's willing to support us in bringing this patch on the way. If he does, I'll get more polls on the way to have the community vote on all changes that could make it's way into the mod - if there aren't enough votes for a change, it's not happening.

remove/replace all those shitty battle maps where one team just camps for the whole round like that desert map with the walled town on the hill + remove the arena one where people run through the tunnels for the entire round

The battle server needs an update. The flow of the maps is horrible, both teams rushing to the other teams spawn in a circle or one team camping and the other attacking (becoming siege). It's boring, it's annoying and there are far better alternatives for maps.

Siege could see some changes to its maps or even new maps aswell.

Clan Camps need to be more rewarding for both the defending clan and the attacksers. I also think deathmatch or a pw like clan/faction system ingame woud work much better than this team death match version.
